I noted that the Lutheran objections to masonry are generally based on bad rumors, oft-reported as truth, most of which debunked in this thread.

One particular struck me as funny: objection that the lamb-skin apron was a statement that salvation could be earned.

The lamb skin apron is actually symbol of Christ, the paschal (passover) lamb, who covers us with GRACE given freely to us, NOT earned, and by that GRACE and not acts salvation is obtained.

Actually, the objections have nothing to do with the lambskin aprons (although there probably are some who don't like it), and everything to do with the quasi syncrisist nature of the masonic lodge.

Which god do you pray to? If God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, fine state so. If not, then as a Christian I can not participate.
